     I'm tempted to see the movie, Rock of Ages, which is showing in the theatres right now.  Not only does it have Pat Benatar and Journey music (some of my favorites) but also Quarterflash (a definite favorite).

          A few days before leaving for Portland,

     I went to the Quarterflash concert in Lake Oswego, Oregon today, and after the concert I talked to Marv and Rindy Ross.  I told Marv that I had been unsure of the Rock of Ages movie until I heard that it had Quarterflash music in it.  He said that the QT music shows up halfway in the movie, and he gave his review of the movie.  He said that the stage play was better, and though Tom Cruise was good (as were most of the other actors who sang in the movie), they were not rock singers.  He did say that Mary J. Blige and Catherine Zeta-Jones had the real singing abilities.

          Still in the Portland, Oregon area,
